About Once On This Island Jr.

With its poignant story (based on the book “My Love, My Love” by Rosa Guy) and its Caribbean-flavored score, Once on This Island JR. is a highly original theatrical creation that draws inspiration from “Romeo and Juliet”, and from Hans Christian Andersen’s “The Little Mermaid”.

Through almost non-stop song and dance, this big-hearted musical tells the story of Ti Moune, a peasant girl who rescues and falls in love with Daniel, a wealthy boy from the other side of her island. When Daniel is returned to his people, the fantastical gods who rule the island guide Ti Moune on a quest that will test the strength of her love against the powerful forces of prejudice, hatred and even death.

This is an hour-long “Jr.” version of the Tony-award winning show that’s currently playing at Circle in the Square on Broadway.

About Auditions

My auditions are not competitive and I don’t use them to turn kids away. I want as many kids as possible to experience the joy that theater can bring into their lives. I don’t want audition anxiety to stand between a young person and a potentially life-changing experience, so I work to make my auditions as friendly as possible.

My musical director and I use auditions to help us discover what an actor’s vocal abilities are, and to get a sense of who they are, so that we can cast them in roles that make the most of their unique gifts.

On opening night, when these kids take to the stage, they will delight and enchant you.

I’m very proud of these kids. You will be, too.
